The Cincinnati Bengals will face the Tennessee Titans in Week 15. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, especially regarding QB Joe Burrow.
Is Joe Burrow Playing in Week 15?
Burrow went down awkwardly on his knee during Monday Night Football. He had a sleeve put on his knee and returned to the game, looking no worse for wear.
Burrow was on the practice report with the knee issue, getting in a limited session on Wednesday and Thursday.
Pay no mind to the right wrist designation, as that’s been a weekly staple with him consistently practicing in full. It’s the knee that’s the concern, but he practiced in full on Friday and carries no injury designation.
We’ll continue to monitor the Bengals’ injury report. You can also visit and bookmark our NFL Injury Tracker and Fantasy News Tracker for the latest updates.
Should You Start or Sit Joe Burrow in Week 15?
Burrow is having a career year (pace: 4,846 yards and 43 TDs), and just about nothing can slow him down at this point as the offense is scheming around his strengths. Tee Higgins and Mike Gesicki have plenty of room to be more involved, giving Burrow plenty of production outs should a team unearth a way to slow Ja’Marr Chase.
The counting numbers for the Titans’ defense look good, but that’s the result of limited volume. Through 14 weeks, they allow touchdown passes at the 10th highest rate in the league, and we know that this Bengals’ offense is going to challenge the end zone through the air.
